About this listen

If you refuse to believe me, I will no longer consider you my son...

Daniel believed that his parents were enjoying a peaceful retirement on a remote farm in Sweden, the country of his mother's birth. But with a single phone call, everything changes.

Your mother... she's not well, his father tells him. She's been imagining things - terrible, terrible things.In fact, she has been committed to a mental hospital.

Before Daniel can board a plane to Sweden, his mother calls: Everything that man has told you is a lie. I'm not mad... I need the police... Meet me at Heathrow.

Daniel is immediately caught between his parents - whom to believe, whom to trust? He becomes his mother's unwilling judge and jury. Presented with a horrific crime, a conspiracy that implicates his own father, Daniel must examine the evidence and decide for himself: who is telling the truth? And he has secrets of his own that for too long he has kept hidden...©2014 Tom Rob Smith (P)2013 Simon & Schuster

Between a good start and finish.

I really enjoyed the intrigue and mystery set up at the start of this story. But the whole tilda stuff in the middle really made me lose focus a number of times. The last hour or 2 it picked up again and I thought ended quite good .

performances were very good

underwhelming story sandwiched...

Amazingly written. I was hanging off every word up until the very end. Amazing!

Couldn't Get Enough

Not knowing this author, I was sparked to read The Farm, after listening to an interview with TRS.
The narrators were uninteresting, and created no connection with the characters.
The premise of the story held great promise, but, dragged on (could have been halved). There were no peaks/troughs all flatline.
Not to be defeated, I persisted hoping for a revelation.
So glad when it was over.

So Disappointing
